Description Peter Vreman 2015-12-28 11:28:59 UTC
Description of problem:
I have the error to delete a Content View. The error message is too generic to help the end user to solve the problem.
Please extend the error message with details of the list dependent hosts that are preventing the deletion.

Action:

Actions::Katello::ContentView::Destroy

Input:

{"content_view"=>
  {"id"=>96,
   "name"=>"hg-crash::Infra::IPSWeb",
   "label"=>"hg-crash__Infra__IPSWeb"},
 "organization"=>{"id"=>3, "name"=>"Hilti", "label"=>"Hilti"},
 "remote_user"=>"hoici-53fba4ca",
 "remote_cp_user"=>"hoici",
 "locale"=>"en"}

Output:

{}

Exception:

ActiveRecord::DeleteRestrictionError: Cannot delete record because of dependent hosts

Backtrace:

Setting #c0 private since it has customer name.

Ah, I havent checked who reported the bug, reverting the change, sorry :)

Anyway this has been fixed in ruby193-rubygem-katello-2.2.0.81-1.el7sat.noarch / Satellite 6.1.6 I have (maybe sooner, not sure what 6.1.z upstaed this package).

Now production.log and also any error string has something like:

2016-02-03 14:24:28 [E] RuntimeError: Cannot delete 'cv_2' due to associated environments: Library. Cannot delete 'cv_2' due to associated systems: pmoravec-rhel6.gsslab.brq.redhat.com.


Please check if it works as expected.

Comment 3 Peter Vreman 2016-02-18 08:28:42 UTC
Closing. I cannot reproduce it anymore. I now always get the error message mentioned in Comment 2.
I expect my situation at that time was the result of other failures.
